double slashes when installing s9y under www root directory

A Chinese user emailed me just now saying that he couldn't installing S9Y under www root directory.

I tested it on http://test2.dy (a virtual host on my box) and found everything looks fine, except that the URL will be redirected from http://test2.dy to http://test2.dy//serendipity_admin.php when installing a fresh new S9Y.

I think this is a minor bug that should be fixed.

Hi!

The double slash comes from document-roots that end in trailing slashes. To be sure, s9y adds a slash there. To change that behavior might introduce borkage for certain webserver configurations, so i'd like to keep it as is: The double slash doesn't hurt, it's only an optical thing. I'd prefer that over a non-working redirection ;)
